Psalm 110:1-Psalm 111:1 - The Priestly King

1 A Davidic psalm.This is the declaration of the Lord
to my Lord:
“Sit at My right hand
until I make Your enemies Your footstool.”
2 The Lord will extend Your mighty scepter from Zion.
Rule over Your surrounding enemies.
3 Your people will volunteer
on Your day of battle.
In holy splendor, from the womb of the dawn,
the dew of Your youth belongs to You.
4 The Lord has sworn an oath and will not take it back:
“Forever, You are a priest
like Melchizedek.”

5 The Lord is at Your right hand;
He will crush kings on the day of His anger.
6 He will judge the nations, heaping up corpses;
He will crush leaders over the entire world.
7 He will drink from the brook by the road;
therefore, He will lift up His head.

1 Hallelujah!
I will praise the Lord with all my heart
in the assembly of the upright and in the congregation.
